Mission & Core Values

OUR MISSION

NVCA’s mission is to build leaders who are thoroughly prepared to thrive in all of life, work, and in service to others. This mission is achieved through a challenging, yet appropriate, program of academic excellence in a caring, Christ-centered environment, by teachers who effectively integrate faith development and academics from a distinctly Christian worldview. Our goal is to develop well-rounded individuals – academically, socially, physically, spiritually – who are are on a healthy path for true success in life.

We believe the most effective program of education is one that is strong in the liberal arts and has a foundation in unchanging truths. Additionally, our comprehensive program of education fully prepares students to thrive in the 21st century – and includes building life skills, relational skills, technology skills and critical things skills. These areas of learning are complimented by opportunities in athletics, music and the fine arts.
